The highly anticipated film adaptation of Stephen King's Salem's Lot, helmed by Gary Dauberman, has finally found its release strategy. Originally slated for a theatrical debut in 2022, the movie has now been confirmed to skip theaters entirely and premiere exclusively on the Max streaming service later this year.
Warner Bros. Discovery made the announcement, marking a significant shift from their previous stance of prioritizing theatrical releases over streaming. Despite initial plans for a traditional cinema release, the decision to go straight to streaming aligns with the evolving landscape of film distribution.
